Notes

Oxfam Trust in India is part of Oxfam International. A new, Indian Oxfam was established by Oxfam International as India has the development experience and growing economy to solve its own development problems in India as well as other parts of the world. Oxfam Trust will define and articulate Indian perspectives on poverty and development.

Oxfam Trust currently supports work in Delhi, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh and Uttaranchal. In the future it will also support projects in Bihar, Chhattisgarh, North Bengal, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Orissa and seven states in North East India.

Oxfam's presence in India is almost as old as Independent India itself. Oxfam GB first entered India in 1950, responding to the Bihar droughts of 1951 and 1965. Oxfam affiliates from countries such as Australia, Belgium, America, Spain and Hong Kong have also supported grassroots development activities and community response to disasters.
